Thanks Harry.

I think we all just need to be patient, these things take time...

Insignificant things like PCBs will happen when the time is right...

I'm glad Jurgen's family realise the importance of his work here and I'm glad one day we will be able to contribute in some small way to the livelihood of his children. All in good time.

Again - thank you Harry for your efforts.

Dear all,

in memoriam of Jurgen, my wife recently published another (and already older) short movie in YouTube, merging his music with a piece from P. I. Tchaikovsky's ballet "Nutcracker"):

Enjoy!

Dear all,

as I announced recently, a memorial fund was set up by Jurgen's wife Birgit (in fact, this was already done some time before Christmas, but I had not had the chance to publish the dates here - my fault!).

The fund is intended to work merely as a pool for voluntary donations from the community in order to support the needs of Birgit and the kids, something which has to be strictly separated from anything connected with Jurgen's PCB business. So please DO NOT (AB-)USE the fund, e. g. as a replacement for Jurgen's PayPal account, or for placing (and pre-paying) orders for PCBs! This is something that still has to be cleared by the lawyer, and nothing can be decided in this regard up to now.

I posted the account dates for the memorial fund in a new thread:

Thank you for all contributions!

Hello everybody,

in the Memorial Fund thread mentioned above I added a post with paypal account dates of Birgit Haible. If you want to support the family from countries outside the European Union, this is the cheaper way to transfer money.

Best regards,
Harry

Hello to all,

This is a cross-post from another thread; sorry for doing this, but the discussions about Juergen's musical heritage created many "open ends" in the forum that want to be kept alive.

This is just a life sign from me...

I had some very hard months of work recently, and virtually no time for anything else. Thist is my first return to e-m.com since September, but to make it short, there have been no changes yet in the situation of Juergen's family.

It has now been about one year since the early passing of Juergen; I thought it would be worth a short note.

But nothing is lost for the DIY community in terms of PCBs; the boards are still here and safe Smile

, but still unavailable...

I promise to visit this forum more often again, just to keep you informed.

Best regards,
Harry

Thanks Harry for the heads up, I'm really looking forward to the day the PCBs become available again, it would be brilliant to have some of Juergen's legacy in my machine.

I hope you and Juergen's family are well.

I had some time during the holidays and continued soldering my Juergen PCB's. I didn't work on them for nearly 2 years since my 1st was born... I found out about this post whilst googling for Juergen's site.

Never felt so sad during a christmas, much too talented, much too young and a father of 2 children Sad

Bezrat hashem he is the modular and electronics walhalla now.

Rest in peace Jurgen...Wherever you are.
